Growth, Evolution, and Properties of Surfaces, Thin Films, and Self-Organized Structures Symposium Held November 27- December 1, 2000, Boston, Massachusetts, U.S.A

This volume emphasizes the broad scientific and technological interest in surfaces, thin films and self-organized structures. A significant portion of papers addresses materials and devices at the nanoscale, including work on self-organized structures as well as nanopatterned thin-film structures. Materials research in three-dimensional (layer growth), two-dimensional (surfaces, interfaces), one-dimensional (quantum wires, point contacts), and zero-dimensional (quantum dots) objects are covered. Discussions span nucleation, island and pattern formation, interracial properties, formation of quantum dots and quantum wires, defect kinetics, atomic migration, effects of stress and strain, electro-migration, pulsed-laser deposition, vapor-phase epitaxy, CVD, MOCVD, PECVD, LPCVD, MBE, alloy formation, Monte Carlo simulation, molecular dynamics studies, atomistic simulation, atomically flat surfaces, surface and interfacial roughening, and faceting. Materials discussed include metals, semiconductors,oxides and other insulators, organics, and biomaterials.Moss, Steven C. is the author of 'Growth, Evolution, and Properties of Surfaces, Thin Films, and Self-Organized Structures Symposium Held November 27- December 1, 2000, Boston, Massachusetts, U.S.A' with ISBN 9781558995581 and ISBN 1558995587.
